It's not that different really.
The difference for me is that I rather live in a country where 2 relatively harmless people want to steal my stuff and I don't need a gun to defend myself usually than in a country where 20 armed gunmen/knifemen would like to rob my stuff but I get a chance to shoot back. Neither guns nor self defense are illegal here after all. We're just don't worship and propagate either of them all the time whenever we get a chance.
We also seem to have less guys with knives who are after our families. I'm just saying there may be a connection.
